 | | A big problem of the Polyplay was, however, its bad recognition of coins: As the East German money was made out of aluminium, the coins rapidly lost their shape, and often the automat would not accept the 50 Pfennig coins that were put into it. |
 | | Further, the graphics of the Polyplay were on a 70es level, compared to those of western technologies. |
 | | Today, the Polyplay, with around ten exemplars remaining, is one of the rarest collection pieces for collectors of coin automats. |
